Having main'd SMN in HW, I was more than happy to pick up RDM as SB came out, wasn't and still are not going to be disappointed. Only thing that I do have issues with, but that might be a bit more personal, without having to micro manage that pet, and not having a "strict" rotation to follow, since it's more "proc" based, I do get bored in dungeons/trials more often. That's when I go play healer if I want a challenge lol. Anyways, take a look at it, and maybe you might enjoy it more, than you think you would.
